Parkinsoni Rainbowfish (Melanotaenia parkinsoni) (Pair)

A slender-bodied Melanotaeniidae species with softer, more understated coloring than the bolder Boesemani or Praecox lines it's often shelved next to, sold here as a pair to start a breeding-condition duo. Like the rest of the family, color intensifies meaningfully as the fish matures and settles into a stable tank, a young pair won't show full potential right away. Peaceful and active, best appreciated in a real school in a larger community setup.

Care level: Easy · Temperament: Peaceful, shoaling · Max size: ~4" · Min tank: 30 gal · Diet: Omnivore, flake/pellet
